Mon, 18 Jun 2012 21:00:57 +0000http://www.slamonline.com/online/?p=213190#comment-2320095@marjon AI has a better a chance of making a successful comeback because he`s healthy and doesnt have to worry about degrading knees or any other pre-owned career ending injuries. It`s simple logic. As an owner there`s no way I would sign roy unless a doctor of my own selection assures me that his knees are 100%. resting for an entire season or two or three will not miraculously resolve the lack of cartilage. So, I sincerely hope that roy`s desire to return is fueled by a sudden renewed health (knee-cartilage resolution) due to surgery rather than irrational wishful thinking. It`s a little strange that roy doesnt refer to his knees, having knee surgery, or any other operation to eradicate this permanent medical issue which leads me to believe that it`s still an issue. But I hope Roy and AI will both be back on the court next season.

@marquis, you’re dreaming about AI, that would be one colossal failure. No team would pick up that option

Either serious misdiagnosis, or Roy, like many great athletes just can’t let it go.

He has degrading cartilage in them which limited him to a reserve role while still only managing to play about half the season. His knees will get progressively worse. If this knee-cartilage situation hasn`t changed which he doesn`t allude in his statement, then investing in him doesn`t make sense. But I wish him all the best.

Boston, Chicago, Clippers to name 3 where he could get an opportunity off bat to start… Dallas, and Memphis have open 2guard problems also. He could push someone over the top. The Lakers will wooing Nash and DWill to come over with no dough tho… hahahahaha! blow it up
